Reviews for Ambra Spirits Distillery & Bar
The Honest Diner
Seriously good food...and seriously good cocktails! There was a large group of us, so we did the "feed me" option for $79. Everything that landed was delicious. Perhaps the portion sizing was a little on the smaller side, but the quality of the food/dishes was very good. Their wine list is small, but in fairness, it is a distillery. The cocktails we drank were some of the best I've had!

A recent gorgeous renovation has really made this place feel alive. Indoor and outdoor dining spaces are available and also a large function area. The new degustation menu was tremendous. Changing weekly, you may not know what you’re going to get, but I assure you it will be damn tasty. We enjoyed baked pasta, Kingfish, roasted quail, heirloom carrots and tiramisu just to name a few dishes. On a thirty degree night, the cocktails were amazing. Lemoncello Spritz, Watermelon Spritz and the Ambra version of a Pina Colada, all are highly recommended. As for the stuff, they were sensational. Nothing was too much trouble and they always were happy to answer any questions or concerns we had.

We had the 100ml lemoncello bottles as our bombonieres at our wedding recently ! We had so many of our guests compliment us on how amazing the lemoncello was and they wanted more! Thank you for such a great product that I was able to share with our family and friends at our wedding Highly recommend!

The food at this restaurant is absolutely amazing. We went for the five-course menu, and each dish was perfectly prepared, with unique flavours and beautiful presentation. However, the experience was slightly let down by the long waiting times. There were around 25 minutes between each course, which made the dinner feel overly drawn out. Even after we had finished eating, the service was still quite slow. If they improve the timing, this place would be perfect, as the quality of the food is undeniable.

I recently dined at Ambra and had a truly disappointing experience. To start, the food was terrible, with portions so small that we left feeling hungry. We ordered the kingfish, and what was served to us was a raw piece of fish with an awful appearance that looked like it had blood on it—turns out it was beetroot. When we asked the staff about it, they explained that the menu stated the fish was "crudo," which means raw in Italian. However, we are in Australia, and not everyone understands Italian. It would have been helpful if they clarified that on the menu. We politely asked if they could cook the fish, but they flatly refused. Adding to the frustration, the timing of the service was appalling. The dishes did not come out together; there was a half-hour gap between the first and last plates. Our friends had already finished eating, and we were still waiting for our food. When it finally arrived, it was cold. Overall, it was a very bad experience. I would strongly recommend avoiding this place—don’t waste your money and time.
